The close and open betas for The Division really turned my opinion around. After initial vauge interest from a story viewpoint, I looked at videos and decided the gameplay didn't look too interesting. Hands-on time changed my opinion with the closed beta, and open beta playing with friends solidified my opinion. Game is straight fun.
Something about it has clicked with me, where other half-MMO/drop-in-drop-out-online-co-op/loot games like Borderlands, Destiny, Dead Island/Dying Light didn't click.
If I had to hazard a guess at why that is. It's not a half-MMO pretending to be a single player game with the most paper-thin story dressing over fetch quests like Dead Island and Dying Light. The Division is billed as a co-op game first and formost, I mean you're part of a team. And the gameplay isn't just all guns blazing. You can use abilities and weapon mods and (like TLOU) teamwork and strategy to come out on top using other means in a 4 on 1, or facing guys that are 2 levels above you. Of course you can also get cut down like a dog just as quick, it's just a case of planning and not making a mistake. Will totally be getting it on release day.

He probably realized he knows nothing about how things work. Most of his stuff is speculation and it the end he'll just look bad when proven wrong.

Damn..thats a good price. Havent taken the plunge yet, just lurking in here and sitting on the platform the hype train is rolling through

Wow this... I have no words
Wow this... I have no words
Quite a few sold too

What makes The Division particularly compelling for me
(where Destiny and Borderlands failed, although Dying Light succeeded - Dead Island is straight up bad)
To boot they've decided to give it some seriously strong worldbuilding, in terms of story/lore (even if the plot goes nowhere) and the physical design of the world, which is like GTA/Fallout/TLoU-level in terms of detail/apocalypse.
Man I'm excited.
How legit is the site?
Will buy today if legit.
Mydealz is just collecting stuff. Ebay is as legit as it always was (I personally never had any issues with any key reseller I bought from, but sometimes I hear the worst stories about every store that is around).
A good indicator are the comments below the deal and the Temperature gouge. If it's "hot" then it's mostly save to buy.
Btw: Great idea for the Hype Train - Tecnniqe should just pull it and some guys are sitting on top of it, like in a chariot.
Yes. Get out.
But... But...
Who's gonna pull the hype train?

It redirects to ebay...not sure how legit that seller is even though he/she seems to have a very good rating.
Ugh...so tempted
It's from G2A. If you look at their site you'll find two different versions.
Int version (€39.99): https://www.********/tom-clancy-s-the-division-uplay-cd-key-preorder-global.html
Russian version (€22.75): https://www.********/tom-clancy-s-the-division-uplay-cd-key-pre-order-ru.html
Since the price on the German site is closer to the Russian version I'm inclined to believe they're selling that version (although it says otherwise).
Kane1345: It looks like it.

Seriously though, isn't anyone buying nvidia cards anymore these days?
I guess I'll have to settle with the local PC retail copy for $40. At least it's $7 cheaper from steam version. :/
